After a review of the initial information presented in the 2016 Mexico submissions for the GODI, submitters from civil society - Sergio Araiza- and responsibles of the open data initiative in México - Enrique Zapata-, got together to dialogue, analyze and perfect the information presented in these first submissions.
This is an example of the value and benefits that the Index can bring to get civil society, citizens and government together to discuss opportunity areas for open data in the country, understand different views regarding a single issue, and agree on next steps and actions to continue working towards a robust and strengthened ecosystem in Mexico.
After these analyses, we would like to kindly request the GODI to take into account the following clarifications:
Administrative Boundaries
Inclusion of two new datasets:
State and Municipality boundaries: inegi.org.mx/geo/contenidos/geoestadistica/catalogoclaves.aspx
State and Municipality polygons: www.inegi.org.mx/geo/contenidos/geoestadistica/M_Geoestadistico.aspx
Question B3, include all characteristics as present
Question B6, there are regular updates made by INEGI more than once a year.
@Enrique_Zapata Thanks for your feedback, the shapefiles I found and updated already incorporated your info?
The item I am missing is that currently the dataset license show that it is only Open License for Noncommercial use. If you have any link to Open Data Law covering the Administrative Boundaries do let me know. Thanks!
Hi!
Yes, the open license is here: Página no encontrada

Please let me know if you have any other question.
